Research

Reseach overview

I have studied the history and culture of Wako (Japanese pirates), Ebune (sea nomads of Japan), and sea people in Japan; the transformation of the family in modern Korea; the education and identity of Korean residents in Japan; and the changing nature of conscription and perceptions in Korea. Recently, I have also studied colonialism and memories of war, and Asian food culture (especially Buddhism and meat-eating).
